Overall a good experience.Steph has been easy to deal with and helpful along the process, thanks to her I could successfully obtain a certificate 3.Just keep in mind that the person collecting your informations and proofs might not be in the same professional activity sector than you, which can sometimes be a bit frustrating when having to explain specific tasks or videos.

My experience with this company is they are very hard to communicate with, and have no urgency about getting you qualified. When I was initially told it would take 2 weeks to get qualified after handing over all the evidence, it ended up taking over a year. I had to really push them to get my qualification, I’m not sure I would have even got it if I wasn’t so persistent. But I did get my certification in the end which was obviously what I wanted out of this.
